Dana Dovey — Psychopaths Are Most Likely to Study This [Business and Economics] in College

The study, published online in Personality and Individual Differences, found that individuals with the Dark Triad traits (narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism) are more likely to have studied business and economics. These results show that your personality, particularly having a “dark” personality, may influence your educational choices.… 
The findings are based on answers from over 400 Danish students who took a personality test while also providing information about their academic choices. According to The Indy 100, the study was specifically done before the students started their studies, so that any personality differences could not be attributed to the course’s socialization effect, but rather give true insight into the tie between course selection and personality....
Studies also suggest that studying economics make a person more selfish, less empathetic, less caring, less charitable, and greedier.

I've maintained on this blog the morons and psychopaths run the world. This is just more evidence of this to me.
